Eighty-four percent of Kazakhstan’s electricity is generated from fossil fuels, with hydropower accounting for 12 percent and less than two percent generation from solar and wind installations as of 2019. Coal, produced in the northern regions, is used to power more than 70% of the country’s electricity generation.

Balkhash Solar PV Park is a ground-mounted solar project which is planned over 140 hectares. The project is expected to generate 170,000MWh electricity and supply enough clean energy to power 100,000 households. The project is expected to offset 170,000t of carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) a year. The project cost is expected to be around $118.189m.
Last year, the aforementioned record for reducing the price of solar electricity was broken by another investor, who offered a tariff of 10.38 tenge per kilowatt-hour at an auction for a wind farm project. For investors who are building renewable energy sources on the territory of Kazakhstan, 1 megawatt of a solar power plant costs about
Solar power plants, with 45 facilities harnessing the sun''s power, produce 1.2 GW of electricity. Spanning regions such as Abai, Zhetysu, and Karagandy, these solar farms capitalize on Kazakhstan''s ample sunlight to fuel the country''s energy needs with minimal environmental impact.
The company''s project pipeline in Kazakhstan includes Sarybulak SPP (4.95 MW), Kapshagai SPP (3 MW), Kushata SPP (10 MW) and Shoktas SPP (50 MW), which were acquired in 2019, as well as a solar power plants in Kentau
The project was developed by Nomad Solar. Access Infra Central Asia and Total Eren are currently owning the project. KAZREF-Nomad Solar PV Park is a ground-mounted solar project. The project generates 49GWh electricity thereby offsetting 65,600t of carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) a year. Development status
The power generated from the project is sold to Kazakhstan Electricity Grid Operating under a power purchase agreement. The power is sold at the rate of $0.091kWh for a period of 15 years. Goldbeck Solar is the O&M contractor for the solar PV power project. For more details on SES Saran Solar PV Park, buy the profile here.
Solar power has a great potential as a renewable energy resource due to sparsely populated large areas and the climatic conditions, especially in southern Kazakhstan with an annual sunshine of 2200 to 3000 hours.
Hevel Kentau Solar PV Park is a 20MW solar PV power project. It is planned in Turkistan Region, Kazakhstan. According to GlobalData, who tracks and profiles over 170,000 power plants worldwide, the project is currently at the dormant stage.

"Since ratifying the Kyoto protocol, Kazakhstan has also set ambitious goals for shifting the country''s electric power generation to renewable resources." Solar Power . As for solar energy, the southern part of the country, including the Kyzylorda and South Kazakhstan Regions, proves to have the highest levels of insolation.
Kazakhstan''s largest clean electricity source is hydro (8%). Wind and solar are starting to play a role, reaching 5% of Kazakhstan''s electricity in 2023 – a significant increase from their near-zero share in 2015. However, this is still far below the global average (13%) and regional average for Asia (13%).

There is enormous potential for renewable energy in Kazakhstan, particularly from wind and small hydropower plants. The Republic of Kazakhstan has the potential to generate 10 times as much power as it currently needs from wind energy alone. But renewable energy accounts for just 0.6 percent of all power installations. Of that, 95 percent comes from small hydropower projects. The main barriers to investment in renewable energy are relatively high financing costs and an abse
On July 16, Kazakhstan celebrated the launch of construction on a hybrid power plant in Zhanaozen, funded by national oil and gas company KazMunayGas (KMG) and Italian energy company Eni S.p.A., in its western region of Mangystau. According to KMG, the 247 MW hybrid project developed by Eni Plenitude will combine renewable energy sources -wind and solar -
Solar Power: The potential of solar energy in Kazakhstan is estimated at 2.5 billion kWh per year. Solar energy can be widely used in two-thirds of Kazakhstan’s territory. The government aimed to put 28 solar power plants into operation by the end of 2021, and met this goal, with currently 51 solar power plants in operation.
In 2019, another solar power plant in Kazakhstan, Saran, with a capacity of 100 MW started its operation in the Karaganda region (Satubaldina, 2020). According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), within the period of 40 years, solar energy has a potential to meet about 20-25% of the energy demand of the country.
Kazakhstan has significant potential for renewable energy. The wind potential is estimated to be 1.8trn kWh per year, which is close to 10 times Kazakhstan’s current energy consumption, according to UN estimates. Solar energy also has great potential given the number of sunny hours per year, typically between 2,200 and 3,000 hours, implying a capacity of 1,300-1,800kW/sqm per year. Hydro power is another renewable energy source with potential in Kazakhstan.
In the southern regions of Kazakhstan, the annual consumption of solar energy is from 1,280 to 1,870 kWh per 1 m2 for each square meter. Solar energy can be widely used in two-thirds of the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan, with a total duration of solar radiation ranging from 2,800 to 3,000 hours per year.
At least 50% of the territory of Kazakhstan is suitable for installing solar power plants (Antonov, 2014). However, up until recently, solar resources of the country were not being used for power generation. Kazakhstan is developing solar energy technologies, namely production of photovoltaic modules using local silicon.
The plant is to produce solar cells using Kazakhstan’s silicon. The designed capacity of photovoltaic wafers is 50 MW with a potential to increase up to 100 MW. In 2012, the first solar power station, “Otar,” that generates 0.5 MW of energy, was also built in the Zhambyl region.
